Watching London last night against Hull, unfortunately for them I still see them as favourites for the drop.

Spirited performance in the second half to be fair.

It is a fascinating match up tonight. McGuire looked too good for us the last time we played them. Lui should change that a bit. Our outside backs are good if provided a platform - it’s Garbutt, Parcell, Mulhern down the middle we have to match.

Has the ingredients to be a good game. I’d like us to get Newman and Hurrell at them in good ball.

Looking forward to seeing what Martin can do now he’s a little more settled too.

I'm not overly confident of a win (I haven't been confident for about 3 years I think for Hull KR this is a massive game, whilst it is for us also I can just sense them seeing this as a bit of a cup final.

However - they have leaked points for fun this season, their PD is shocking, if we can can show the same defensive attitude as last week I think we can score enough to win the game, Quinlan is the player I fear the most from them TBH

A dangerous team who as you have said, can turn it on when needed.

Throw in the HQ returns of Garbutt, McGuire et al it should be a very tasty match indeed.

Hopefully we have turned a corner and can get the result, a real 6 pointer if there ever was one.

whatever the outcome tonight its a 2 horse race for relegation, london and ourselves ,wont be sorted untill last couple of games though, leeds focus should be on pushing for 5th spot which is still possible no chance of relegation for you guys

leeds will go down

Defend like we did v Cas we win by 14+ imo.

Re: RD 22 | Hull Kingston Rovers (H) : Fri Jul 12, 2019 12:27 pm  

Im apprehensive to sound confident here, but I think we will win this one based on our improving defense.

I think HKR's main threats can also be the players who make the most errors for them. If they are met with some steely defense early on, I think there heads will drop.

Leeds by 16.

Sold out away allocation, so we’ll bring the noise. Certainly no need for that drum and trumpet.

I think it will be the first time since the old stands were there that it will feel like a Friday night at Headingley again

I think I'll be able to enjoy it as a win would be great for us I'm not sure losing will mean anything come the end of the year (he says hopefully)
